Man that sux Fane, hope you can fix it :)  

Driver didnt you sell your car? or were about 2?

Almost sold it :)

I was coming home from the licencing center after getting new number plates, to hand the car over the next day.

But luck wasnt on my side..

I got witnesses saying it was her fault so that helpd a little.

shit man .. thats unlucky ... i've said it before and i'll say it again .. you just can't help bad luck!!! :rolleyes: ... but good to see u got a good attitude ... i'm a little confused as to why ur premium wouldnt' go up since its not your fault and that you did very well to avoid the accident.

Hey fane

Sorry to here you bruized your line. My brother inlaw does some panel work and spray painting (paints planes @ janderkot and does ppls cars on the side does a F#*kin good good to) so if you let us know if you need help. You should see the 240Z he just finished.

yer i have been thinking about it and my insurance company wont be involved at all... so i shouldnt really care....i was just a bit stirred up and shaky all day couldnt really think properly...

k the video and more pictures up where i got air and where i landed are uploaded into the http://www.iinet.net.et/~robi/car/ folder.

the tire wasnt that worn before this happend i drove home about 2 kms to get home and then drove back in the old mans car to make a statement and stuff... because i was shit scared... it scared the crap outa me.... the cops were fine, they didnt even care about me they just wanted a witness about the main accident.

thanks impul i'll PM you once i have washed that side and hope its buffable...

aliance look like the first place to try i'll give them a ring today and take 1 of the rims up there...

mine are enkei racing, also 3 piece and im ring up about them today, i live in mandurah so i gotta drop them off sometime :) i ripped the front bar off last night and apparently it can get a re-resin of the back and fully re-fibreglassed and a re-spray for about $400. (my last quote as $330 but now its a bit more dented.)

i'll let you know what they say...

The front RIM is not saveable...

The guy from alliance rang today and said that the front one isnt saveable...because he cant get the middle out...

Anyone got any other places i can try? I think it might have to stay buggered....

On other news....i NEED 2 17" rims, does anyone have 2 laying around... i dont mind having 2 drift specs on the back for a short amount of time until i figure out what im going to do about the 1 that i need....

I have 3 out of the 4 set... hopefully i can find some...

But if anyone has some 17"s laying around that you dont mind me borrowing or i can throw som cash your way for them, i would be happy to throw in a carton for your trouble...

once i get some 17"s i can check all the suspension and get alignments done and the front bar glassed and resprayed....until then im dead in the water.... :)

thanks guys.. :goddam:

So ok everyone I have some bad news.

I didn’t buy enkeis.

That’s right I didn’t buy enkeis…

I have bought some Super Advan Racing mags… the trispoke ones

http://www.vivagarage.com/performance/perf...rims/advana.jpg

Got them for $1950 inc freight and they will arrive on my doorstep Wednesday morning.

I’ll put them on Wednesday and then I’ll show everyone on the next cruise… J

These are the only trispoke mags I like and I have seen them on quite a few skylines, the sure as hell arnt rare but I got them for a good price. 17x8s front and 17x9s rear with tires with apparently decent tred on. So we shall be the judge of that… J

So there we have it… fanes mag saga solved… now to the front bar, fmic, indicators, el gauges, window lift, turbo, ecu, etc etc etc…

J

I know lots of people have these mags but who exactly have these mags from sau?

Common? you dont know the meaning of common til you've got Roh wheels on ya car :rofl:

Nice looking rims Fane .... glad you finally have it all sorted and looking forward to seeing the car :O

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG is has not responded to my emails so far after purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
